This report summarises the background, methods and findings from a large-scale study to investigate the views and preferences of the Australian general public for quality of aged care and the future funding of aged care. The study is the first of its kind in Australia and internationally. It provides a unique and timely general public perspective to inform aged care policy and practice as the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety works towards its final recommendations and the proposed re-design of Australia’s aged care system.
